Abstract
Este texto mostra uma aproximação entre a discussão sobre envelhecimento e o tema dadeficiência, pois, com o envelhecimento da população, o principal grupo de deficientesconcentra-se entre os idosos. Revela também como a emergência da corrente conhecidacomo modelo social da deficiência muda a forma tradicional de compreensão daquestão ao transferir do indivíduo para a sociedade a responsabilidade pelas desvantagensrelacionadas à deficiência. O modelo social da deficiência é uma discussãoextensa sobre políticas de bem-estar e de justiça social, em que a explicação médicapara a exclusão não é mais considerada suficiente. We point a convergence on the debates about aging and disability as with thepopulation aging most of the disabled persons are found among the elder. Weshow how the emergence of the school known as social model of disability changesthe way of understanding disability as it transfers, from the individual to society,the responsibility for the disadvantages related to disability. The social model ofdisability is an extensive debate over social justice and welfare policies in which themedical way of explaining exclusion is no longer considered sufficient.
